Kyle Lowry hits miracle buzzer-beater to send Heat-Raptors Game 1 into OT

Media pundits and fans alike had been criticitizing Raptors poing guard Kyle Lowy and his all-star running mate for DeMar Derozan for their postseason shooting percentages.

Fans had even started to leave the Air Canada Centre as the team trailed by three points with less than four seconds remaining in Game 1 of Toronto's Eastern Conference semifinals series against the Heat.

Then it happened.

After Hassan Whiteside missed one of two free throws, Lowry saved an inbounds from going out of bounds and heaved a 3-pointer from near halfcourt with Justise Winslow near to tie the game at 90 and it sent it into overtime.
